I liked your thread.Very informative thread.I like the project as well.

What will be the cost of these machines? Are there minima requirement to be

Your project seems very interesting, I would like to know more details about how your technology is superior to other competing projects, like Mainframe or Maidsafecoin. What does it make you unique? And could you contrast your own technology with the technology of these other projects?

This is a good question.

First, our design philosophy is different with Mainframe. Mainframe is trying to build a new blockchain based network stack. New application have to use their stack to benefit their technology.
What we are doing is using the blockchain to protect the current network asset first. Every user and application can get benefit from Deeper immediately.  We prefer a smooth evolution to the Internet. Please check the white paper about our 3 steps plan.

Second, DeeperConnect(Yes, we changed the product name) is an all-in-one solution and is designed as plug and play and zero configuration
We assume our users don't have strong background of block chain and security，DeeperConnect will do everything for you.

Think about it:
1, You don't need to install software on different platforms such as Windows, Mac, Android to get a secure and free access to the Internet.
    Once DeeperConnect is plugged and everything is done. Time is money, this device can save you a lot of time!

2, This device is quiet and has extremely low power consumption (5 W as an iphone charger) but it can offer 1Gbps NGFW traffic protection, sharing service and PoC mining service.
    The cost of power consumption of your PC is much more expensive than the total cost of this device.

3, You want to a free, secure, private connection, but how to make sure your PC is safe enough? As you know, many organization has tons of zero day exploit tools to hack any traditional operating system such as Windows, MacOS, IOS and Android.  Our AtomOS is world most powerful security OS, it not only protects your devices but also it will protect itself.

Thanks,

I will try anything that is free so sign me up.

Will it wash my dirty dishes and do laundry?

I believe that this project has great potential if it manages to fulfill its own expectations: being fully functional and provide the privacy that the Internet currently lacks of. Internet privacy is a big issue right now and real technological breakthroughs could help users recovered part of the lost ground regarding privacy.

Do you have bounty? I love to join your bounty.

What are advantages and disadvantages or using hardware instead of just relying on computers, cellphones or IoT devices like other projects plan to do?

Yes, we have bounty and IDO program. We prepare 5% tokens for the core users who helps us to build our security ecosystem. We consider the core users as Deeper team members.
For example, if you report bugs, provide some unknown application traffic and some suspicious URLs, we will offer you a lot of DPRs.

Please join our telegram channel to get these information.

Thanks,
Russell

Looks promising  but please correct that 'Septmeber 2018' typo in the Roadmap as it hurts my eyes

Would love to test this device in my home network!
